USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

THIRSTCRUSHER* dispensing system

The ice dispenser

Ice is dispensed from the ice maker storage
bin in the freezer. When the dispenser bar is
pressed, a trapdoor opens in a chute
between the dispenser and the ice bin. Ice is
moved from the bin and falls through the

chute. When the dispenser bar is released,
a buzzing sound may be heard for a few
seconds as the trapdoor closes. The dis­

penser system will not operate when the
freezer door is open.

For crushed ice, cubes are crushed before

being dispensed. This may cause a slight
delay when dispensing crushed ice. Noise

from the ice crusher is normal, and pieces of

ice may vary in size.

When changing from CRUSHED to CUBE,

a few ounces of crushed ice will be dis­
pensed along with the first cubes.

To dispense ice:
1. For cubed ice,
move Ice Selector Switch

to CUBE position.

2. Press a sturdy glass against the ice

dispenser bar. Hold glass close to
dispenser opening so ice does not fall
outside of glass.

3. Remove the glass to stop dispensing.

NOTE: The first few batches of ice may

have an off-flavor from new plumbing and
parts. Throw the ice away. Also, large
amounts of ice should be taken from the ice
bin, not through the dispenser.
